The Mercedes-Benz 600 (W100) is a ultra-luxury car/limousine built by German manufacturer Mercedes-Benz. It was considered their flagship model, replacing the W186, nicknamed 'Adenauer', after the German chancellor Konrad Adenauer. Since the Mercedes-Benz 600 has been the car of choice of many political leaders, many of them rather disputed figures, the W100 is used twice by Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

History

On Her Majesty's Secret Service (film)

Ernst Stavro Blofeld uses a silver one, with Irma Bunt on the backseat, when attacking James Bond and Tracy Bond in their Aston Martin DBS.

Diamonds Are Forever (film)

Ernst Stavro Blofeld uses a blue MB 600 again when capturing Tiffany Case in Las Vegas. Interestingly, the blue one has a French national sticker and red French duty-free licence plates, with a Nevada plate mounted above it, but sidemarkers indicate a car built for the American market.
